<h1>Subversion: Merge Dialog Box</h1>
<a name="BEGIN" id="BEGIN"></a>
<p>The Subversion Merge dialog box enables you to incorporate changes from a specific repository revision into your local working copy of a file or folder. You can also specify changes from a given range of revisions from the repository. 
<object classid="java:org.netbeans.modules.javahelp.BrowserDisplayer">
<param name="content" value="http://www.oracle.com/pls/topic/lookup?ctx=nb8200&id=NBDAG311">
<param name="text" value="<html><u>How?</u></html>">
<param name="textFontSize" value="medium">
<param name="textColor" value="blue">
</object>
</p>
<p>The Merge dialog box can be accessed by right-clicking a versioned file or folder (e.g. in the Projects, Files or Favorites window) and choosing <b>Subversion &gt; Merge Changes</b>.</p>
<p>In the Merge Changes dialog box, you must specify the following fields:</p>

<table summary="User interface elements and descriptions" dir="ltr" border="1" width="100%" frame="hsides" rules="groups" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="0">
<col width="24%" />
<col width="*" />
<thead>
<tr align="left" valign="top">

<td align="left" headers="r2c1-t18 r1c2-t18">Select one of the following types of merge:</td>

<tr align="left" valign="top">
<td align="left" id="r4c1-t18" headers="r1c1-t18">
<p>Two Repository Folders</p>
</td>
<td align="left" headers="r4c1-t18 r1c2-t18">Port changes from two repository folders.</td>
</tr>
<tr align="left" valign="top">
<td align="left" id="r5c1-t18" headers="r1c1-t18">
<p>One Repository Folder Since Its Origin</p>
</td>
<td align="left" headers="r5c1-t18 r1c2-t18">Port changes that have occurred between the time of the folder's creation and the revision number that you specify in the Ending Revision Field.</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
<br />

<p>Based on your selection above, the dialog dynamically updates to reflect the required fields. For example, if you chose to merge from two repository folders, combo boxes for the first and second repository folders display, and the preview is modified accordingly. Likewise, if you chose to merge from one repository folder since its origin, you need only specify the location of the repository folder in the Repository Folder combo box.</p>

<p>Click Merge to initiate the merge. The IDE incorporates any differences found in the selected revision to the local copy of the file. If merge conflicts occur, the file's status is updated to Merge Conflict to indicate this.</p>
<p>After merging file changes to your local working directory, you must still commit the changes using the Commit command in order for them to be added to the repository.</p>
